is it possible to make a new release with current master?

[arielzn]

Hi,

I would like to create a package for this to be built with EasyBuild (https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild), that will help to many to install it building from source easily.
But I need features that were included after the latest 1.9.5.1 release 2 years ago (like compatibility with PROJ 4.9.3).
Is it possible for you to create a newer release with all the commits included so far in master?
I need a .tar.gz with a fixed checksum to create a reproducible build with the mentioned tool.

Thanks

Another benefit will be the added python 3.6 support...

Please note that a new release should help with other active issues - in particular
#136 (new release will cause a new _proj.c to be packaged, which should enable py3.7 support).

And, making pip install work would probably make the need for binary wheels ( #130 ) less urgent.

@jswhit please let us know if there is any issue we can help with that is blocking the next release to pypi

New release is up on pypi now.
